Independent Living Support
Empowering Independence Through Resource Coordination
At The Seraphim Foundation for Aging, we are dedicated to enabling seniors to lead fulfilling, independent lives in their own homes for as long as possible. We recognize that finding the right support resources can be challenging and time-consuming. That’s why our Independent Living Support program connects seniors with national and local resources that help them remain self-sufficient while aging with dignity.
From healthcare assistance to safety assessments and mobility support, we provide guidance to ensure every senior has the resources they need to thrive.
